Overdub and loop editing

Overdub is how you grow a loop instead of replacing it.

​
When to use it

  • add hats over drums
  • add accents after the base groove is working
  • test alternate phrases without rebuilding the loop from scratch

​
Core edit actions

Loop editing in the current product includes actions such as:
  • overdub
  • duplicate
  • extend
  • shorten
  • clear
  • undo

​
Good workflow

  1. record the simplest useful loop first
  2. overdub one new idea at a time
  3. use duplicate or extend when the loop needs room
  4. undo quickly if the new layer makes the groove worse

​
Creating loop variations

Use c to copy a loop into a blank slot. Then, use overdub to add new elements, giving you a variation of the original. Use scenes to change when that variation is played instead of its original.

​
Why editing matters

Loop editing reduces the number of times you need to reperform a whole idea just to adjust one section.
